missed during the next session t t t 1 war service are we waging war in earnest germany s invasion of belgium and holland is bringing ever closer to home the realities of war mr churchill in parliament said at no time in the last war were we in greater peril than we ate now let all energies be harnessed let all the ability and force of the nation be hurl ed into the struggle canada is at war but are all her energies being harnessed is the ability of her people being used to the best advantage don t most of us find life going on very much as usual before the war began just as good food just as pretty clothes just as many par ties just as much travelling about we are at war but did ou ever think of the impression we must mak on cur american friends when they see how little war has actually aflccttd o ir mode of life or inter rupted the stream of canadians holidaying in their southern winter sorts true women everywhere are doing red cross work and other war work good work but in the case of the a- t majority it is an ii cidenlal matter a matter of a half day a week ana is only a mere sciatch on the surface of the potential abilities of canadian women think of piarce where one person ut of every eight of the popu la t ion is bearing urns where women boys and ol 1 men m l t do all the farming and provide all the industrial laboar where wufees are controlled in parity with tht pay of the mobilized olditr litre uts are heavy all excess profits turned over to tht overnnvnt and luxuries almost elimin ated france has lived beside the german people for ce itu she knows their ruthlessness their utter lack or scruple u l dire necessity of using her resources to the full to win victory f om them in englano four and one half million men have been called up there are five million men under arms in franc thire are millions in the armies massed in the east our alllts have mllions of urns of equipment ships aeroplanes tanks artillery ammunition prepared and ready for war how little in comparison is the effort put forth by canada here only a fraction of o ir resources in man power or materials has been touched is it because we are taking victory for granted yet when we have seen the results of the nazi blitz kre g and fifth column activities in czechosolvakia and poland and norway bow can we takelctory against this wellorganized force for granted victory depends upon men guns chips and above all aeroplanes it depends upon directing the energies of every british citizen to winning if as they say men from canada are not needed in large numbers surely speeding up of the producton of foodstuffs and munitions of war would help toward that victory church leaders and prominent men everywhere are warning us of the grave danger that threatens us the danger of german domination of the world and the ending of the freedom of man as we know it yet there seems to be a strange apathy to the challenge facing us are we reconciled to a possible german occupation of great britain and prance and even canada and all it implies i think not yet the average cana dan is powerless it appears to do anything about it no matter how great the will direction of our efforts should come from the government is the oanmlian government afraid to ask the people to make sacrifices is it lacking in faith in the will of canadians to put their back into the war effort then they are poor psychologists do they not know that it is an instinct of man to want to be in on the big moment that though he may grumble he gets a heartfelt satisfaction out of sacrifice that he likes to feel that he has done what is right and decenthis duty in any case wouldn t any canadian rather work a little harder pay a little heavier tax and do without a few luxuries rather than run the risk of having to live under the conditions of a peace dictated by a triumphant germany we are engaged in a struggle which can only end in the collapse of civilization or a victory for the british empire we have boundless fiuth in the french armj and the british navy but there is a limit to the ability of all things mortal a more vigorous effort by canada may b what is needed to turn the balance in our favour t t t book review testament of friendship by vera brittaln those of you who read and remember vera brittaln a testament of youth will welcome her most recent book testament of friendship but this time the experiences related are only occasionally her own for her new book tells the story of her great friend wlnnifred holtby whose dffath at the 4arly ffgft f f 37 deprived pngllsh literature of one of ita most promising younger novelists it is a vivid and personal story related against a background of world events so that behind wlnnifred holtby s crowded life we hear the surge of political currents and sec the vast sweep of social change as she grows to maturity we watch her world widen from the yorkshire tillage environment of her childhood the setting for south riding to the

close friendship between two women beginning when they were unknown college students and continuing to the end of wlnnifred holtby s life when they were both among the beat known authors of their day it is the story of a friendship that remained un broken for sixteen long years and shows that loyalty and affection among women can be a noble relationship let kruichen helikoep you well do you know 1
